God's Plan for Your Salvation - Remain Faithful
|
We must remain faithful until death. While baptism puts us into Christ and washes
away our sins, we must still be obedient and faithful to God, otherwise,
we will lose our souls. The Bible tells us of the reward awaiting those
who are faithful -
"...be thou faithful unto
death, and I will give thee a crown of life." 1 Revelation 2:10 (KJV)
Some people believe that once a person is saved, he cannot
be lost. This contradicts what the Bible says -
"If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance;
seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to
an open shame." Hebrews 6:6 (KJV)
Finally, Jesus himself warned of following Him and then
later abandoning Him when He said in Luke -
|
"...No man, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God." Luke 9:62 (KJV) |
Only by following God's word will we be assured of our place in His Kingdom.
